[01:45] * claydoh is a muppet, I guess :) but I am proud of my blue-haired status. [05:20] nice comments http://dot.kde.org/2011/03/11/confkdein-project-neon-returns-bleeding-edge-kde-software#comments [05:22] o/ [05:22] \o/ [05:51] Riddell: none of them say anything about neon :) [05:51] nigelb: we are going to crap out the college's WiFi as well [05:51] we just started icecc daemons [05:51] :> [05:54] agateau: around? [09:16] is it just with me or with everyone, kubuntu runs slow when building a package? [09:19] c2tarun: well ... depends upon the package [09:19] shadeslayer: its koffice. :/ [09:19] yeah ... so the build uses your CPU [09:19] so it might get slow [09:54] ping Riddell [09:58] hi tazz [10:08] Riddell, having problems, trying to log into kubuntu. Is it ok if I ask you to take a look at it ? [10:08] i'd like to confirm if its a bug, or is it just me. [10:12] tazz: sure [10:19] I still get errors when updating my Maverick installation, owncould produces that error: http://paste.kde.org/7102 [10:38] I spy a I spy a Riddell in kilt http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/184764_10150118148109442_573989441_6472026_6449109_n.jpg === seajey_ is now known as SeaJey [11:37] I successfully build koffice but I dont have the older version's tar ball with me to create debdiff. :( is there anyway to create debdiff without downloading that tarball, downloading it is not possible now :( [11:38] Riddell: ping ^^ === yofel_ is now known as yofel [11:55] yofel: can you please look at my post. [11:57] I saw it, but afaik debdiff needs both the old package and the new package, if there's another way then I don't know it [11:58] yofel: actually I have very low bandwidth, :( and its India vs SA cricket match today and we are watching it on net :) I'll get the older version and upload the debdiff ASA the match ends :) thanks [12:14] c2tarun: checkout the old packaging from lp:~kubuntu-members/koffice/ubuntu and diff -urN the debian/ directories [12:14] or do a merge request [12:53] Riddell: ping [12:57] Riddell: here is the diff -urN b/w the debian directories of koffice 2.3.1 and 2.3.3 http://paste.ubuntu.com/579250/ please check it and if its ok, then I'll attach it with the bug. [13:58] Riddell: ping you looked at that diff yet? [16:42] so Riddell just left :( [17:21] yofel: well Riddell is gone for more than 4 hrs can you please look at the diff I posted. [17:23] c2tarun: i'm having a look [17:23] but is it a debdiff? [17:24] yeah [17:24] c2tarun: just run a diff between the 2 debian dirs [17:24] shadeslayer: it is the diff b/w the 2 debian dirs [17:31] shadeslayer: is the diff ok? [17:57] c2tarun: since you already have the bzr branch it would probably be easiest to just file a merge request [17:59] yofel: merge request means file a bug on LP for merge? [17:59] c2tarun: er, no, let's do this guided [18:00] c2tarun: first, you used bzr branch to get the packaging? [18:02] yofel: do I have to download the whole source code again? [18:02] c2tarun: nono, I'm talking about the packaging branch Riddell had you check out [18:03] yofel: I didn't checked how to check it? [18:03] lp:~kubuntu-members/koffice/ubuntu [18:03] that one [18:03] or what did you use to create the diff? [18:04] yofel: I downloaded the older version's debian folder from LP and created the diff, how to use that branch? I never use it [18:05] c2tarun: ah well, if you don't then probably you don't have your ssh key on launchpad either - go the debdiff route then [18:06] yofel: I have my ssh key on LP. [18:07] c2tarun: hm, well, wouldn't hurt to do a merge request then, if you stick around you'll hear people talking about that constantly, so here goes [18:07] bzr branch lp:~kubuntu-members/koffice/ubuntu [18:08] that contains the debian/ dir of the package we currently have in the archive [18:08] yofel: where should I execute this code? in the source code folder or the folder having dsc file? [18:08] er, folder having the .dsc file would be easiest [18:09] I am not a kubuntu-member, wouldn't this be a problem [18:10] no, you'll see [18:10] you only need read permissions for that branch for now [18:12] yofel: its downloading something with very slow speed, are you sure it will not download the whole source code? [18:12] once you have it, apply your changes from the new package to that debian folder (just copying the new debian folder over the one in the branch should do most) [18:12] c2tarun: no, the whole source would be lp:ubuntu/koffice (*large*) [18:14] yofel: ok, I got one ubuntu folder inside it a debian folder. [18:15] c2tarun: yep, that's the current packaging, now copy your new debian folder over it (that does the right thing in most cases, we'll check that later) [18:15] just use cp -r in the terminal, it will overwite the files [18:18] yofel: its overwriting files but I deleted one file and its merging that file, should I delete it from the branch directory? [18:18] c2tarun: yes, but for that go into the ubuntu folder and run 'bzr rm debian/kformula.install' so bzr knows you deleted it [18:19] yofel: done. [18:19] c2tarun: after that pastebin the output of 'bzr diff' please [18:20] yofel: http://pastebin.com/e7PQGZk7 [18:21] c2tarun: please run 'bzr add debian/patches/kubuntu_04_findlibgsf.diff' - Riddell didn't commit that [18:22] done [18:22] ok, if bzr diff also shows that file as added, edit the changelog and change your 'natty' at the top to UNRELEASED [18:23] yofel: ya its showing, should i run bzr dch -e or just dch -e [18:24] c2tarun: just use an editor directly [18:24] dch -e might work, or might error out since the folder name is wrong [18:25] yofel: done ( used an editor) [18:25] c2tarun: ok, now run 'bzr commit' - and add a fancy commit message that describes what you did [18:27] after that, run 'bzr push lp:~c2tarun/koffice/2.3.3' you can replace 2.3.3 with anything, but that makes sense here I think [18:27] what about 2.3.3-0ubuntu1? [18:28] fine too, it's just the branch name [18:29] yofel: ok, and since this package is also in debian we dont need to bump the Standards Version? [18:30] we don't usually bump standards, the debian folks do - you would have to review if anything needs to be updated for that anyway, which might take some time [18:30] c2tarun: did you read the whole debian policy? [18:30] yofel: nope :( its very long, just some important points. [18:31] then just leave the standards version, it doesn't really have to be the most recent one [18:31] c2tarun: tell me when the push is done [18:32] yofel: its done [18:32] k [18:33] c2tarun: ok, now go to https://code.launchpad.net/~c2tarun/koffice/2.3.3-0ubuntu1 === jjesse_ is now known as jjesse [18:33] click on "Propose for merging" [18:34] select "Other" as target branch and put "lp:~kubuntu-members/koffice/ubuntu" into the field [18:34] add a short description of what you did, then click on propose merge [18:36] yofel: done [18:36] c2tarun: k, give Riddell the link and wait [18:36] yofel: sure :) thanks [18:36] er Riddell is on a flight [18:36] Riddell: https://code.launchpad.net/~c2tarun/koffice/2.3.3-0ubuntu1/+merge/53143 [18:37] so ... i bet he will be online on monday [18:43] shadeslayer: so what should I do? mail him the link? [18:46] c2tarun: wait for someone to merge it [18:47] c2tarun: why was kformula removed? [19:05] shadeslayer: they said kformula is broken and also not vey useful. [19:05] c2tarun: they as in upstream? [19:06] shadeslayer: yup [19:06] hmm... [19:06] c2tarun: just remove the debian/control entry too then? [19:07] shadeslayer: well they didn't actually removed kformula from the source code, they just commented the lines responsible for its installation, so I think they may have plans to fix it and include it in later version. [19:08] hmm [19:10] shadeslayer: so I thought its better to comment the lines in control file so that we can uncomment it later :) [19:10] okay .. [19:10] c2tarun: please mention that in the changelog? [19:11] shadeslayer: well I think I mentioned that I commented the lines. [19:15] shadeslayer: do I have to mention something else? [19:15] something like : * Upstream recommends removing kformula atm [19:17] shadeslayer: ok, I'll do that, anything else which needs some improvement? [19:19] nothing else [19:19] shadeslayer: ok, after changing the changelog, should I run bzr commit again? [19:20] yep [19:20] shadeslayer: with the same branch name? [19:21] shadeslayer: I mean than push with same branch name? [19:21] ues [19:21] *yes [19:24] shadeslayer: ok, I made the change and pushed the branch again. [19:24] okay === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan
